The three men, who were stripped naked, were accused of a failed attempt to kidnap a car dealer in Ikorodu area of Lagos State.
They have since been identified as Taiwo Olayinka, Saheed Monsuru and Azeez Sodiq.
Though one of them said they only wanted to extort money from the car dealer, those who apprehended them were heard saying it was an attempted kidnap.
